Saying he was "deeply sorry," Congressman Mark Foley (R-FL) resigned from Congress today, hours after ABC News questioned him about sexually explicit internet messages with current and former congressional pages under the age of 18.
A spokesman for Foley, the chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children, said the congressman submitted his resignation in a letter late this afternoon to Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert.

And when a man rapes a girl that is just as sick! Not just when they like little boys, when they go after little girls it is just as wrong.
Is that you, Chris Matthews?
That would only work if he were a Democrat perv. Since he's got an R after his name, he's toast. Not that there's anything wrong with that. :)
Well...it's be a great way to get Jeb into the national picture....
he's a sick twit

It's a lovely, simple, chaste, and wholly reverent ceremony. Much more so than any other kind of wedding I have ever attended.
they were girls
you weren't watching
An LDS temple marriage cermeony costs absolutely nothing.
The wedding reception, which is open to everyone, costs whatever the parties decide to spend. Many couples hold the wedding reception in an LDS chapel, again at no cost for the use of the facility itself.
My wife and I were married at a total cost of about $600.
Pretty sweet deal.
...... run by compromised, miserable, worthless scumballs......... for the most part.
Then to his republican supporters, it was alright to be gay, but not gay with 16-18 year old boys. I guess he crossed a some line that his republican supporters could not accept. What a fool.
You know what chaps my hide - the fact that the leadership knew about this months ago and did nothing. He should have been pressured to resign "to spend time with family" or whatever and then a suitable replacement could have been moved in his place to run. The district leans right. Now it's lost to the RATS. Way to frickin go. Politicians are idiots. This is a chess game that needs to be thought out three steps ahead, always.
If only congressmen could get married none of this would have happened. When are they going to allow them to get married???
Ways he can still win an election:
Step 1: Convert to Democrat
Step 2: Move to Mass...
Of course the infiltration by homos into the priesthood has been used by the media to decimate the Catholic church and attack Christianity in general.
For any person that doesn't see the direct link between male homos and the rape of young boys; well, all I can say is you haven't lived in the San Fransicko area to witness what has gone on for 35 years.
I don't care how "lovely,simple, chaste and wholly reverent" the ceremony was, is or anything else. To exclude the entire family of the bride, her best friend since the age of 5, great grandmother who was 98 is not "lovely, simple, chaste and wholly reverent" it is just plane evil!
So did I......and I got reamed for it.
It surely may have been "cheap" for you but to purchase the dress, etc. fly the bride over 2,000 for the "ceremony" should you see fit to call it that, and we had also given the couple a honeymoon trip to Hawaii that was a little late to get a refund for, we didn't consider that cheap - a cheap shot at the bow of "the family" yes, cheap no.
And then the media turns around and criticizes any effort to keep homos out of the priesthood. That's because being homo has nothing to do with being a pedophile. Right.
